@AGamingBeaver It’s a shallow grave.
Their content is created by and oriented for the sensibilities of teenage boys, man children.
Of course a simple war film gains purchase with man children versus a simple family film.
@LegHvmper Bap demands more for equal value, but this clip doesn’t show it. I’d argue, isolated to this clip, Bap is getting more value than a Kiri with little demand.

That assumes that there's a left populist road to a more radical socialism. I think the left populist milieus are places we can recruit socialists and that can contribute to struggles that politicize but I'm less certain. A left populism that governs the bourgeois state is at best social democracy without an organized social base.

The fight established both.
wow, you think truth is an infinitely complex and groundless fractal rather than foundational and comprehensible? and that there is no privileged vantage point from which it resolves into a single stable object? you really showed those postmodernists.
